The best restaurants in Cork city council

05/10/2025: Amazing place for delicious small plates and fantastic wines. Really great for trying new wines! Staff are so friendly and go above and beyond also.

20/09/2025: Great for a pre theatre drink and nibbles

07/01/2026: From the bottom of my heart..... This is the greatest burger in the universe.

01/01/2026: Got a burger and chips meal on deliveroo. Cost me 20 quid took over an hour to come and they only delivered the burger and no chips. Happy new year 👍

11/11/2025: Food was great and staff very very friendly.

07/11/2025: Lovely, authentic Thai food. Served by really friendly, helpful lady that described the different dishes as I asked her to.

23/02/2026: Wilton was one of the first shopping centres built in Cork and it is showing its age. A single floor anchored by Tesco at one end and Pennies at the other with a range of businesses between. Its still a one stop shop for most of the time. There is ample parking, Cork University hospital is across the road and both Aldi and Lidl are close by. Access is very good.

16/02/2026: Good center in a good location, right next to the bus station, has good food places, a Dealz and a Tesco, some clothes shops, very handy

26/10/2025: I never got to go in, but locals will rant and rave about this place. We rang the doorbell and were greeted by an amazing woman. Sadly they had no more room left, but she was the sweetest person. Hopefully we can visit again soon, and have an amazing pint (which every waitress and waiter told us is the best place to have one)

09/09/2025: Best Cork pub I've been in to, and I've been here 29yrs. Didn't even know it existed. Drove past it so many times. Looking forward to my next visit 😊

22/08/2025: shocking standards Since they closing down, raw chips , chicken burger dead dry and black inside meet , chicken wings black inside absolutely disgusting

10/08/2025: Visited Route Fourteen with my family for lunch. The food was great, the dining area was spacious, but I have a few points I hope can be considered to improve the service. There were two lunch menus on our visit: one standard lunch menu (same as website) and one specific for the day or week. We ordered from the second menu since they seemed seasonal and more fresh than the regular menu. The prices were similar to other gastropubs around Cork City. I ordered pork belly with vegetables and mashed potatoes. The pork was stuffed with walnuts and dates, a stuffing I would have never thought would taste so nice with pork. Other dishes we had were the "Smash Burger" and Reuben sandwich. We ordered chicken wings with buffalo sauce for starters. Everybody enjoyed their orders but the beef in the Reuben would be better if it was not heated much. For dessert we had a mango and raspberry cheesecake and lemon meringue. Both were presented nicely and tasted amazing. They are best eaten between two people as they are large desserts. We were seated at a bright high table by the window, however we were near a large private booking and I felt a bit under pressure as the staff were setting the tables around us for the arriving diners. Given that the venue was not busy when we arrived, I would have preferred sitting further away from the large group booking. I would highly recommend visiting Route Fourteen on your next day out for lunch or dinner at a gastropub.

24/12/2025: Such a great selection. Lovely chilled out cafe with friendly staff.

30/11/2025: Gorgeous shop and teas. Was extremely accommodating for an initial misplaced order now their Dreamcatcher tea is an integral part of my nighttime routine. Their products are high quality, well priced, and delivered with excellent service. Highly recommended.

08/10/2025: Love their curry. Best in cork i tasted so far. Kimchi was amazing

15/09/2025: Fabulous range of salads and food. Really excellent fare!

19/02/2026: Amazing staff and always great food 😀

13/12/2025: Had dinner tonight in soba with my partner mother in law and my baby. Were greated with a warm smile and super accommodating. They were so accommodating to my baby also, immediately grabbed a highchair and were being playful with him. We ordered our food they even reccomended a dish to my mother in law as she asked. The food arrived very fast. It was gorgeous, the chips were crispy on the outside and soft inside the curry was beautiful and so was the crispy chicken. My partner got the satay and it was beautiful also. The dish my mother in law was recommended was also beautiful. Fast service and great food. Definitely worth the price even though it’s not as expensive as some of the other similar restaurants i’ve been to. A small restaurant very clean quiet perfect for a date night or celebration. Played lovely christmas music on low was beautiful. The staff are just the kindest i’ve ever met. Super sweet ! Highly reccomend going to this restaurant

05/12/2025: Great little place to grab a pizza. I got a small pizza here and wish I had gotten more. It was delicious. And the people in there were so nice. I will be back.

12/10/2025: Incredible place, incredible waitress, incredible owner and incredible food! Grazie Mille!!!

16/11/2025: Popped in here for a quick pint last month. Best pint of Guinness I've had in years.

21/10/2025: Awesome! Beer was good price! The company was great. I can from California to visit my family roots down in Cork. I told those there at the pud, and Eugene gave me a Cork flag! Thank you Eugene!

28/02/2026: Great pizzas and a really nice overall vibe. There are good vegetarian options, which is a big plus. I liked almost all the pizzas, but my favourites were the Quattro Formaggi (Four Cheese) and the Marinara, simple and done really well. The place has a warm, cosy atmosphere, perfect for a relaxed evening. Beers are excellent, I usually go for the Chieftain IPA, and it never disappoints. Would definitely recommend for pizza + craft beer lovers

22/02/2026: Staff were friendly service was quick! Nice menu & reasonably priced

31/12/2025: One of my favourite places to go in Cork, such a nice cosy pub

19/08/2025: Old time cork pub, great spot to chill 😎

09/12/2025: Went there to see a band. Great night had. Great pub, good service

29/10/2025: Good atmosphere! The resident cocktail maker was not present but the fella behind the bar did his best and produced some top quality cocktails for us. Staff are incredibly sound.

30/10/2025: Been ordering from here for nearly 10 years. Never a mishap and never disappointed. Chef recommendations are top notch, fast and pleasant delivery. Really can't recommend them enough.

25/08/2025: Wow, seriously the best Chinese food we've ever had. Ordered the Thai crispy beef, crispy shredded chicken in honey sauce and the sweet & sour pork - all absolutely delicious. Don't normally write reviews but this is an awesome family run restaurant and they deserve all the success.
